Growing up in Pembrokeshire I have had the pleasure of spending many sunny (and rainy) days in St David’s, each time I return I find another reason as to why I love it even more. When you think of St David’s, i’m sure the St David’s Cathedral (that makes St David’s the smallest city in the world) springs to mind, and there is no doubt that this magnificent Cathedral is a beautiful wonder in its own right! However, this blog is to express there is so much more to St David’s other than it’s beautiful Cathedral. If you want to […]

If there’s something us Brits do well it’s got to be a good afternoon tea! Match a coastal view with those clotted cream and jam scones, or a Georgian manor house set in the middle of rolling green fields with a glass of prosecco and a macaroon.. it becomes hard to beat! With strong opinions voiced in the office of the best afternoon tea locations (yes, we take tea and cake very seriously!) We eventually managed to narrow it down to our top 5 picks that differ in location, views and those all important finger sandwiches! In no particular order.. […]

One of our favourite weeks to get involved with every year as a company is Random Acts of Kindness week! It’s the perfect way to give a little something back to our guests, the community and of course Pembrokeshire. When we started brain storming lots of wild and wonderful idea’s in the office of how we could make a difference this year, we couldn’t quite put our finger on what we felt was missing – It was the ‘little’ things! Sometimes small random acts of kindness can be overlooked, yet often go the longest way! Simply paying someone a compliment […]

With Valentine’s Day just a month away and the Welsh valentines celebration, St Dwynwen’s Day, taking place on the 25th January, there’s no time of the year more romantic. Both days have their own legends. Saint Dwynwen is remembered for wishing that God would help all future lovers after a love triangle between her, her true love and the man her father had arranged she marry left her heartbroken. There are a number of stories surrounding the history of Valentine but a popular belief is that the he was a Roman priest who helped arrange secret marriages during a period […]

As I pulled up outside ‘The Cottage’ in Saundersfoot, on a sunny afternoon I couldn’t wait to take a look around inside. I love finding quirky properties that are in some way characterful or unique, so when I set eyes on this picturesque thatched property I already knew it was going to be a new favourite of mine. Walking through the large stone porch of the property, I was expecting to step into a very traditional barn-style shabby chic décor. Instead I was greeted with a modern homely feel throughout the property with original features still in place to add […]
